Blog Renovation | Malaysian International Dance Championship 2009

Welcome to a different EVo's Space everyone!

As quite obviously noticeable, I have slightly modified this place. Not a different theme but some adjustments:

 

(1) The first thing you may notice is the Twitter bar above! Apparently Twitter gained tremendous growth over the past 6 months and everyone's crazy about Twittering.

I ain't got the slightest idea why, but that's why I installed the bar. To find that out.

So as a start, if you're on Twitter, click on the 'follow me' button up there, or click here if you don't see the cute blue bird. You stalk me, I stalk you, fair ma.

This twitter bar will serve as my status update, like in Facebook. So that I get to 'live feed' my blog and be closer to my readers. Yes, You ahahaa.

 

(2)  I finally got rid of the 3-column layout *YES*

Last time I thought that having more columns would allow viewers to see more without having to scroll down, then I realized it was a waste of precious space that could be used to scale up my pics. That's lagi best. 3 column looks cluttered as well. So 2-column it is for me now.

(3)  Blog header. It's pathetic now and I need a nice banner! That'll be my homework but I'm trying not to forget that I'm still designing Leonard's banner for him lolx.

 

Talking about new blog layout, Rames my macha also has a new and cool layout. Rames also turns 29 today! Wei almost 30 yrs old dude xD Happy Birthday! =)

Ok as promised, here's the post from The Malaysian Dance Championship in Genting! OMG here come the picchassss!!

 

 

When I reached, the event already started..damn. What happened to 'fashionably late' Malaysian events'? 

 

I travelled far and wide here to give my support to..Wei Luen!

Do not make the mistake of judging his dancing from the size of his belly body. This guy is so nimble that even Elvis Presley will surrender to him in a 1-to-1 dance face-off.

 

Actually this earlier shots were che-kai a bit coz I forgot to take off my diffuser. So everyone looked strangely orange.

Only after this point that I took of the diffuser. Damn fail.

 

I finally met Arhnue after 10-ish years after schooldays!

So happened her dad was the announcer for the event so she took 2 days leave to come co-announce. Smangat betul. I know she don't look too happy in this pic though. Coz that time I hadn't went up to her and said hi yet. You should've seen her after we chatted. All smiles thanks to me XD

 

 

Some of Wei Luen's other supporters:

Billy (who also joined the competition), Ching and Jeremy who stayed until halftime.

Ching's one of the nicest friendliest girls around, and she's an instructor herself! I want private lessons from her ahahah..

 

This is Jack who was runner up for one of the rounds!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Why this two pics so dark?? why??  T_T

The excitement really started when ballroom was over and it was time for Hiphop.

Wait, I almost forgot the belly dancers.

^o^

 

^o^

^o^ !! 

Anyway, hiphop.

As I was there from the start of hiphop, I had a clearer picture of the sequence of events.

 

And it started with this guy who was quite surprising.

Damn geng. Spender pun terkeluar.

 

I never got to know this girl but she was really good and finished podium. And she's cute.

 

This guy also podium finish:

 

Also competing was our very own Careen Tan.

She did well but couldn't take podium this time...next year girl! =)

 

I dunno where these guys came from but it sure looked like their costumes were sponsored by MILO:

 

This group from Japan was pretty impressive too. And they're only lil kids but podium finish man.

I admire how much discipline these contestants put into training.  You gota be bloody strong for this!

 

Some contestants wanted to create a more racy atmosphere for the night.

From this as the starting...

To this...

Wah lau can actually see the girls on the left and right ripping off their pants. Nice.

My own mum won't admit me as her son if I made myself look like this.

 

And the champion of the hip-hop team category goes to these girls that were, truly, impressive. They had me at the edge of my seat and had the right moves at the right moments. Damn nice lor.

 

I really like this shot of the lead dancer too:

Her hair very nice lor. I mean, the way it flew around very nice.

Hip-hop groupie pic!

 

After the whole thing..the moment that we were waiting for...CAMwhore!!!

Careen, Eric, Debbie, Matthew, Sim Li, Billy, Ching, Wei Luen, Pik Yee, Jack, Stanley.

 

 

*ahem*

 

 

 

 

 

 

I damn like these guys ah. Natural posers man.

 

Other 'moments'.....

I was watching and waiting for this girl's mother-elephant-super-size pants to fall but unfortunately they held up.

 

This shot of Wei Luen clearly shows his prime confidence oozing out of his cleavage. Charming.

 

If you do have weight issues, do avoid wearing sexy / lacy / semi transparent costumes or it may result in loss of appeal. Or, pull your pants up higher if you really have to go with the sexy shirt.

 

And last but not least, make sure you use Rexona should you ever take part in a competition.

Great work to all competitors, congrats to all winners and runner-ups! And kudos to the organizing team for this event.

But next time, give la photographers free pass LOLx.

Cheers!
